xen: Use newly added dmops for mapping VGA memory
Xen unstable (to be in 4.11) has two new dmops, relocate_memory and pin_memory_cacheattr. Use these to set up the VGA memory, replacing the previous calls to libxc. This allows the VGA console to work properly when QEMU is running restricted (-xen-domid-restrict). Wrapper functions are provided to allow QEMU to work with older versions of Xen. Tweak the error handling while making this change: * Report pin_memory_cacheattr errors. * Report errors even when DEBUG_HVM is not set. This is useful for trying to understand why VGA is not working, since otherwise it just fails silently. * Fix the return values when an error occurs. The functions now consistently return -1 and set errno.
